More quotes by Sri Aurobindo
The supreme state of human love is...the unity of one soul in two bodies.
Sri Aurobindo
Witness and stand back from Nature, that is the first step to the soul's freedom.
Sri Aurobindo
Death is but changing of our robes to wait in wedding garments at the Eternal's gate.
Sri Aurobindo
A great thing would be done if all these God-visions could embrace and cast themselves into each other but intellectual dogma and cult egoism stand in the way.
Sri Aurobindo
The inside must be made entirely calm and quiet and there should reign an upward aspiration - a state of awaiting.
Sri Aurobindo

Sri Aurobindo
We cannot afford to raise any institution to the rank of a fetish. To do so would be simply to become the slaves of our own machinery.
Sri Aurobindo
Love is the keynote, Joy is the music, Knowledge is the performer, the Infinite All is the composer and audience.
Sri Aurobindo
Not complete inaction, which is an error, a confusion, a self-delusion, an impossibility, but action full and free done without subjection to sense and passion, desireless and unattached works, are the first secret of perfection.
Sri Aurobindo
Faith is the soul's witness to something not yet manifested, achieved or realised, but which yet the Knower within us, even in the absence of all indications, feels to be true or supremely worth following or achieving.
Sri Aurobindo
The Bhagavad-Gita is a true scripture of the human race a living creation rather than a book, with a new message for every age and a new meaning for every civilization.
Sri Aurobindo
After having stopped the lower activities of the mind, it must be made receptive and, instead of weaving all kinds of empty and idle thoughts, the mind should receive intuitions from above.
Sri Aurobindo
All thoughts, desires, conventions, attachments which come from outside must be ruthlessly pushed away.
Sri Aurobindo
For all problems of existence are essentially problems of harmony.
Sri Aurobindo
To hope for a true change of human life without a change of human nature is an irrational and unspiritual proposition.
Sri Aurobindo
While doing work if the mind continues to be active let it be so, but there must be at the same time a capacity for silence.
Sri Aurobindo
Until you get a guidance from above you cannot be sure but to get this guidance it requires time and sadhana.
Sri Aurobindo
One must have first of all a solid foundation.
Sri Aurobindo
[S]tand aside and watch the working of the divine power in yourself.
Sri Aurobindo
Live according to Nature, runs the maxim of the West but according to what nature, the nature of the body or the nature which exceeds the body? This first we ought to determine.
Sri Aurobindo
